Tuesday’s Daily Dive: 12/13

<!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Week 4 of the Indiana high school basketball is officially underway and we had got a big slate of high school hoops going on last night in Indiana. Let us dive on in and take a look at some highlights of Tuesday's night of hoops. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>Terre Haute North beats West Vigo for a 29th straight time</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>A very impressive winning streak stayed alive last night in Vigo county. The Terre Haute North Patriots went down the road to face the West Vigo Vikings and were able to extend a winning streak of 29-straight when they defeated West Vigo 49-37. Terre Haute North's [player_tooltip player_id='1275782' first='Kavish' last='Reddy'] lead the team with 13 points and Kam Baker added 10 points as well. West Vigo shooting guard [player_tooltip player_id='1253266' first='Zeke' last='Tanoos'] had a game-high 18 points and Garrett Pugh added 12 points for the Vikings. Terre Haute North improved their record to 3-2 on the season while West Vigo sits at 3-3 on the year. The Patriot's travel to Bloomington North on 12/15 next. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>Pendleton Heights upsets Guerin Catholic </strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>While it may be a 4A win over a 3A team, this was still probably the biggest upset of the night. In a game that went right down to the wire, Pendleton Heights was able to squeak out a tough win over the Guerin Catholic Golden Eagles 49-48 with the Arabians' junior guard [player_tooltip player_id='2053679' first='Evan' last='Mozingo'] getting a huge game-winning block to ceil the game. The Golden Eagles came into this game as the top ranked team in Class 3A. Monzigo led the Arbains with 11 points and 4 rebound while [player_tooltip player_id='1457477' first='Seth' last='LaRavia'] added 10 points. This was the second straight win for Pendleton Heights and they will look to extend it three-straight wins when they travel to Liberty Christian on 12/16. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>Valparaiso gets OT road win over Gary 21st. </strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Last night saw an exciting matchup up in northern Indiana with Valparaiso getting a big OT road win over Gary 21st Century. While the game was a back-and-forth battler, the Vikings of Valparaiso exploded once overtime hit winning 68-54. 2025 guard [player_tooltip player_id='1297042' first='Jack' last='Smiley'] was without question the best player on the floor here and arguably the best player in the state last night with a extremely impressive 35 points, 7 rebounds, and 6 assists. With the win, the Viking improve to 4-2 on the season while Gary 21st Century falls to 2-3. Valparaiso is currently riding a 3-game inning streaking will look to extend that when they host Elkhart on 12/16 next. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph -->
